When I first heard of the attack I was doing what alot of other people were doing that moring. Getting my daughter ready for school. As we were getting into the our van and backing out my daughter was talking a mile a minute like every morning. I will never forget what I said to her, I was listening to our local radio station and half listen to my daughter. When I heard on the radio that we have been attacked I yelled at my daughter to SHUT-UP it really scared her she is 7. I just started to cry. Not sure if I should send her to school or not. After a moment I mad the choose to try and make this a regular day and sent her to school. What a day to remember my daughter still remembers when mom told her to shut-up. That is not a word we are allowed to use in our house. I will never forget.
